Green Synthesized Bismuth Oxide Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Rhizome Extract ofCurcuma longaMitigate the Proliferation of Human U87 Glioblastoma Cells by Regulation of the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway
Abstract:The low biocompatibility of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) is a main concern in their wide applications in the biomedical field. Therefore, the green synthesis of NPs from plant extracts can provide safe NPs for biomedical applications. The present study was aimed to assess the anticancer
activity of bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) NPs fabricated using aqueous plant extracts from the rhizome of Curcuma longa (C. longa). Characterization of green Bi2O3 NPs was done using TEM, DLS, and X-ray diffraction analyses. Selectiv… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
